[Old Frightful]

How much longer before Sky remove the word "audio" from that banner across the bottom of the screen?

[Gerrumonside ref]

Another kick for goal?

Because they’ve no confidence and aren’t very good

Yeah, doesn’t make for good viewing unfortunately 

[DavidM]

Yes this is just a win at all costs for both and get the chalk on the board 

[Northern Eel]

And finally some Catalans quality with ball in hand. Excellent try.

[Gerrumonside ref]

That was a good try by Catalans.

[DavidM]

Mickeymouskiss , honestly ...

[Desert Skipper]

What on earth is the referee checking for on this one?

EDIT:   I’ll take that back.   To be fair it was difficult to see there was actually a game of rugby going on.

[Hvy wg]

Has Albert earned his spot now?

To be honest, I'd rather they lost the video.

Its Albert who is putting up those pointless bombs. Can someone not give him a stcik with a horses head handle? 

[stevereed100]

Another penalty yet when Carney breaks Mik steps forward and thinks better of it.

Is it me but one commentator keeps referring to out there rather than here in France.

Because the previous 62 minutes was so cr ap he wanted to watch it again.

[DavidM]

Did that really happen or did I imagine it

To save money they are broadcasting the commentary from a toilet cubicle in Salford.

[DavidM]

I think they’re doing it from the bottom of the channel 

[fairfolly]

Norther eel,what is the score,I thought you said Catalan had scored a good try.

[stevereed100]

Should be a penalty to Hull KR, McIllorum ungentlemanly conduct bringing the game into disrepute.

Totally agree , you are encouraging players to do that by rewarding it . I’ll give Catalans one thing , they’ve got some great conners

It’s what the game has become! It needs sorting out ASAP.

JT did it yesterday ... but being him the commentators said how good he was . Refs should embarrass them into stopping it by penalising them or just saying knock on

A lot of players are but what about all the occasions the dummy half passes around him .. and it’s play on . It’s onky a penalty if the dummy half forced the issue deliberately , but the situation is the same? You’re rewarded for doing it the poor way

Great of Bill Arthur and the team to give me a ring and offer me personalised commentary. I've got the sound down on the telly and phone on speaker.

It's like listening to old football commentaries from '78 and '82 world cups or European cup ties from deepest, darkest Soviet Union!
